In these posts and elsewhere I have read where people differentiate between twist and topspin serves.
It seems to me that in order to hit with topspin, your swing path (for a righty) has to have a significant left-to-right component in order to hit up and through the ball. Wouldn't this always put "twist" or left-to-right spin on the ball?
Sorry if I'm missing something simple, but someone please enlighten me.
